Watson in Westbury
« on: Sunday 09 September 18 13:16 BST (UK) »
Sorry, tablet playing up. This is a duplicate post.!


Tracing my Watson roots I have found a John born in Oct 1709 in Westbury. I have seen the parish register transcription on freepages.rootsweb which shows an unsure transcription of a john born to david and mary but the name is wetlen or wetlon or werlon. Could be watson as far as I can see. Also nothing else for a david and mary.

I also have a transcription from buckscc on findmypast which has john born same date to edward and mary watson. Consistent with several other births and deaths relating to the same couple.

Can anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks
Freya
